Evans takes therapy help to cope with fame
July 29th, 2011 - 10:38 am ICT by IANSLondon, July 29 (IANS) Actor Chris Evans gets therapy treatment which helps him get over his anxieties as he struggles to cope with the pressures of fame.
“I struggle with anxiety sometimes, especially when promoting films like this. Just the life of doing what I do, being in the public eye, it’s a stressful environment. So it’s good to go and talk about the things that cause your anxiety,” contactmusic.com quoted Evans as saying.
The 30-year-old, who bulked up his muscles for his role as the patriotic superhero in “Captain America: The First Avenger” says he finds it hard to talk about himself when promoting his movies.
“It’s very difficult for me to talk about myself. You feel strange, self-aware, very foolish. Your third eye clicks on, just to try and maintain a healthy sense of perspective and you think, ‘What am I doing here? I’m just making a movie, and people want all these things from me.’ It seems strange to have so much fuss over a film. I’m an incredibly private person,”he said.
